Any News on your brilliant build log?

Interior is just about buttoned up.
We are chasing a couple remaining electrical gremlins (windows and door locks of all things!)

Once we get that sorted the car should be about ready for firing up and shake down!

Wow, incredible. Those seats are stunning, the bolstering is powdered unobtanium if I'm not mistaken. 14k

I assure I paid no where near 14k!
I saw IND trying to sell a set for that and about fell over.
Mine are technically used (less than 1k miles) not that you can tell!
So I got them second hand, officially, which is no easy feat either!

Unobtainium, indeed.

You need an Alcantara instrument cluster binnacle!

Had crossed my mind but the orange stitching doesn't make sense with all the Perf white stitching.

That's why I've got a custom one with Perf stitching. Seems like a small part of the interior, but it really made a big difference.

Looking forward to some videos, man.

That could look nice!
Mind telling me where you got it, cost etc?

About 100 Euros - got it from Germany as I live close.

Have a look at the work Jack does at Royal Steering Wheels. He covered my binnacle and did a cracking job. I wouldn't have thought postage would be stupid to the UK.

Yeineken · 05-01-2017, 07:30 AM

I would look into somewhere local considering postage for the gauge cover.

Sweidit is down in LA and has some good looking work.

Well, we are finally moving into testing and debug mode.
A few misc wiring items have popped up that need troubleshooting but...

All of these amazing photos are the work of Courtney Cutchen.
Clearly, a talented photographer!

Car looks perfect. Can't imagine what it's like to drive it.
